I think the important point is that markets push back on the attitude itself, as there are economic rewards for not being racist.
We don't have to be so utopian as to think markets would have immediately bankrupted whites-only businesses in the Jim Crow South.
of course, no one is saying it would be immediate. Moreover, a crucial piece of it is that the state is not doing anything to advantage one group over another, and similarly, the state is allowing people of all backgrounds to start businesses on equal footing, to migrate, etc.
